in this place, no meaning exists

by Jared Fladeland

this poem is devoid of emotion.

now this is art.

constellation nothingness dripping
like fungi from the tongues
of a lifeless orator.

blip. blip. blop. blip. blip blip blop.

listen to the rain drops
smashing against an upside down bucket.

this is the fantasia
which strikes my chord:
a fancy merry lad in silver plaid attire
dancing the conquistador waltz
burning Rome like firecrackers.

I really, really like this, man. It's got a hell of a style going for it.

I really like this piece, Jared. Loved the imagery and the way each line just flows so well. Well done ;) -Kat

Adds wonderful new meaning to "rage against the machine." Excellent upsate also for that old Disney word, "fantasia."
